Note: Canon sources are mixed as to whether R2-D2 has a gender, but Wallace (an official source) indicates that the droid has masculine programming.
Droids, especially those with complex personalities and those which worked in close partnerships with organic beings, such as Protocol Droids and Astromech Droids, were often programmed to have stereotypically male or female personalities. Thus, even mechanical beings were usually designated he or she.
Being droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO are electro-mechanical devices having no actual biological gender or sexual identity. Since C-3PO is a protocol droid whose primary functions include communicating with humans, he has been designed to mimic a male voice to facilitate his interactions with humans.
STAR WARS fan favourite BB8 was definitely female and had a ridiculous original name, reveals Last Jedi SFX and creature creator Neal Scanlan. BB8 received a unanimous thumbs-up from fans and critics, which is more than can be said for the latest movie.
But what is it exactly that makes him so adorable? The usual explanation for why we think something's cute is that it reminds us of young children. Astromech droids like BB-8 and R2-D2 communicate via beeps and chirps that resemble the sounds a baby makes before it can talk, for instance.
Poe Dameron discovers that BB-8 has an interesting new relationship with an astromech called Ivee. Then Dameron discovers the robot that actually made the repairs is an astromech named Ivee that looks a little like R2-D2.
R2 and C-3PO were best friends. The two of them had been on countless adventures together. Several of these adventures took place during the Clone Wars, in which both droids participated in. While they were usually on good terms, the two often got in small disagreements.

Wookieepedia states that Yoda is male, citing The New Essential Guide to Characters. For contrast, compare Yoda to Yaddle, a female of his species.
A droid that understood Basic might only be programmed to respond to the voice of its master, and by communicating exclusively in Binary, outside interference that might affect the droid's behavior or function could be limited during the conversation.
Binary. Binary, or Droidspeak, is made up of beeps and whistles. The language is “spoken” by droids such as R2-D2 and BB-8.
R2-KT was a 1.09 meter-tall, feminine R2 series astromech droid produced by Industrial Automaton.
Further in Empire Strikes Back, neither Yoda nor Darth Vader recognizes either droid. Luke travels with R2-D2 to the Dagobah where they find Yoda. Yoda's relationship with R2-D2 is not on the same level with the same characters. Perhaps, the old creature simply forgot.
Master Yoda has risen above all others to claim the top spot as the most powerful Jedi of all time and the true chosen one according to IGN's audience. He won pretty handily as well, as he was victorious in 89,756 of his 95,243 battles and had a win percentage of 94.2%.
From simple google searches you can find that Yoda's midi count was 18,000 per cell, Obi-wan's was 15,000, Palpatine's is said to be higher that Yoda's around 18,500-19,000, and the highest known was Anakin Skywalker's at 20,000 midis per cell.
Some have believed for years that Palpatine was revealing that Anakin was his "son." However, this is not the case, as Matt Martin clears up again. He explains. "He doesn't literally say that. It can certainly be inferred, but he doesn't say it.
Wanna know how to say "I love you" in Droid? You guessed it: "Bleep bloop."
“R2-D2 was really charming,” Tinwell says. “Any humanlike traits you could perceive in him made us like him more.” When the robot whistled and beeped rejoinders to its friend, the neurotic droid C-3P0, audiences thought “Oh, I can relate! He has a sense of humor!”
R2 was owned by Queen Amidala as he read on her space ship in Phantom Menace as the best of the repair droids. Anakin of course was the original owner and creator of C3PO and he stayed with and served his mother for 10 years after he went off with Qui-Gon to become a Jedi.
In the book, Poe is hanging out with BB-8 at a Resistance base when an R2 unit approaches, revealing that it has fixed his X-Wing, but that she did it for "Beebee." The droids then wander off together, indicating they've struck up a romance. Poe has nothing but respect for his faithful droid, saying, "Huh.
Following their mission, BB-8 departed with Dameron for a new mission while CB-23 took his place as Kaz's minder.
